Carl Frampton believes Tyson Fury can ‘absolutely’ improve in rematch with Oleksandr Usyk, and believes the Ukrainian has already achieved his limit. ‘The Jackal’ gives his Oleksandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury 2 prediction ahead of December 21st rematch clash in Riyadh.
Carl Frampton Gives Oleksandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury Rematch Prediction
Carl Frampton is a man who knows a thing or two about boxing. The Northern Irishman had a long and successful career of his own, both as an amateur and professional.
‘The Jackal’ went on to win a world title in not one, but two weight divisions. As a two-weight world champion and one of the best fighters of the past two decades from UK shores, Frampton’s opinion is highly respected in boxing circles.
The former fighter works regularly for TNT Sports, and will be heavily involved in their coverage of the Oleksandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury rematch on December 21st in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Ahead of the rematch, Frampton has weighed-in with his opinion on the fight, and believes ‘The Gypsy King’ could right the wrongs of the first fight and get the job done this time.
The Usyk vs Fury rematch is no longer for undisputed status, with the IBF belt now in the hands of Daniel Dubois. However, the three remaining belts will be contested once again in the last Riyadh Season card of 2024 in Saudi.
Frampton feels that Fury can most definitely improve on his performance in the first fight, but that Usyk might have already reached his limit. That is why ‘The Jackal’ is edging towards ‘The Gypsy King’ getting revenge over Usyk on December 21st.
Frampton: Fury Can ‘Absolutely’ Improve From First Usyk Fight
Speaking on TNT Sports’ Breakdown show ahead of the big rematch in Riyadh, Carl Frampton believes that Tyson Fury will make the necessary adjustments for the rematch, with Oleksandr Usyk perhaps struggling to improve having reached his limit:
“Usyk is a great boxer. Everyone loves him, what a personality, what a guy, what a fighter. He performed out of his skin that night, the performance of a career from an already amazing career.
“But he had to really perform at his absolute best to beat Tyson Fury. Can he improve on that performance? I’m not quite sure, I think that’s the limit. Can Tyson Fury improve? Absolutely.”
Queensberry Promotions kingpin Frank Warren agrees with Frampton, and believes his man ‘The Gypsy King’ will right the wrongs of May and defeat Usyk on December 21st in Riyadh.
His Excellency Turki Alalshikh will be hoping the rematch lives up to the hype and billing it has received, with boxing fans in for a treat just a few days before Christmas.
Oleksandr Usyk goes into the rematch with Tyson Fury as the favourite with the best boxing betting sites in the UK. This comes as no surprise given the Ukrainian won the first fight.
